A little more power can be your friend.

Thanks for the above. I actually put the picture on Google ID with no luck. I'll pick up Searching and Google ID for Dummies later.

This is the rubber cover that the key is inserted into. Any idea if it can be replaced? It just slips over the ignition.

You might be right and I was very surprised. The low price for my boat is $10,000 more than I paid, almost 4 years ago.

I'm just looking to the members for a fair price. There is no intent to sell on this site. Please remove my question if it's in violation of the forum rules. BTW - JD Powers came back with what seems to be a ridiculously high price compared to what I paid. I can't imagine that my boat has...

My neighbor lost his pontoon boat during the last hurricane and since we rarely use our 2019 18' 188SLVDN boat with a Yamaha 40HP engine, I'm thinking of selling it to him. I paid close to $20,000 and have less than 50 hours on the boat. I don't have a trailer and was wondering about a fair...

We have the ones that you can see through and let in light. So much better than the ones hat turn your home into a cave.

Do you mean that he left his bimini on ? What bent in half? How did it happen if his boat was stored?

Wow ! Here's another. A close neighbor has lost three homes in the last 15 years and two to hurricanes. One in NJ a few years back during a coastal storm. One on Gasparilla Island near Ft. Myers during another hurricane and near us, a sinkhole ! The sinkhole took more than 50 truck loads of...

We managed the storm well and only lost a pool screen panel. Lots of tree and limbs down all over the area. It will be a long time till all of the trees are removed and damage repaired. A large tree fell on my neighbors pontoon boat and only destroyed his bimini, cover and and a few rails. It...

Good news for me, bad news for the ones to the south of Tampa. Either way, there will be many suffering, not only from this hurricane, but the residuals from the one two weeks ago. This is not a political rant, but if "barrier islands," mangroves and the draining of the Everglades had not...

T Thanks for the heads up. My boats tied behind my house and there are lots of very large Oak Trees around it. If it were not for the cover, the tree leaves would stain all of my seat cushions. Trying to decide which would be worse with Milton on it's way ! I pulled the cover and we'll see...

I'm on the Hillsborough River and tied up behind my house. I leave the cover on. I hope you faired well during the hurricane. For us, it really was less than a bad tropical storm. Sadly, many throughout the Tampa Bay experienced serious flooding, storm surges and wind damage. The media is...

It's not really a big deal. We live on the river, the boat is in the backyard and we can go out in the boat whenever we wish throughout most of the year. The low river is seasonal and expected. Wildlife increases greatly in the summer because of the additional exposed shoreline and we love to...
